It’s an error to Idolize Marriage and Family
Today let me touch on Marriage and family…The absolute goal of each believer, leader, or follower is to be out in the world winning souls. It’s not about having 50, 20, 30, or 2 years in marriage…it isn’t having successful children either… if you have been married for so many bla bla years praise God and congrats, but let your marriage add value to the Kingdom of God…
if your kids are successful praise God and well done for that…and we pray they continue advancing the Kingdom mandate in their spaces…having an honest household is a part of your household administration requirement demanded of you by the Word of God ( 1 Timothy 3:4), but it isn’t the last word reason, therefore let’s not make a mistake of labeling it “The achievement” and cause others to miss the spiritual symbolism of marriage and the ultimate goal of existence..let’s not lose the main focus and target of our purpose to earthistic perspective…it sounds sweet when one portrays their marriage and family as THE MAIN REASON OF THEIR being here on earth or being married in the first place…. but that perspective is mostly bred from an attitude of self-praise and individualism…the so-called “in my circle of life”. Mind you I did not say don’t love and celebrate your marriage and family… but l say in doing remember they are symbols pointing to a greater truth, so may the AGENDA be to glorify God and not to gain and hoard praise for “self”.
